Web Cam Activity and Testing..Oh My!

Yea, It looked like a train to me at first...But after i refreshed the webcam a few times later the White object that looked like a train moved out from under the track and then i saw that it was a white truck.

Ok, kick me in the can for creating mass panic. Dougster prefers his crow to be warm. It's alot easier to eat that way.

I'm almost convinced that they're doing full-circuit testing now. I caught these shots...

That does prove that they are testing, but doesn't prove full circuit testing...it could have been a short launch...but it doesn't disprove a full circuit launch either.

------------------
What is most anticipated event of 2003? the debut of Dragster, the release of Metallica's new album, the release of Terminator 3, or the release of Matrix:Reloaded...tough call.

They are building up to the final launch. I would think its better to run the hydrolics at 5% then 10% and slowly increase it to test for potential problems. Maybe tomorrow we will see it go over the top.

Did anyone else notice about 5 guys early in the day doing work on the back of one of the trains just outside the station?

Sorry, I forgot to point out the train in pictures #3. The train itself is blurry, which means high speeds. It's been corrected, so take another look at pic 3.

That doesn't mean it is going fast their is a tree their that may make it seem a little blurry. But it still is possible.

Were the trains changing positions when you saw it KyleG?

it doesnt look like a train that you circled because it is alot smaller than the trains on the transfer track.

------------------
Does it stop at 420 feet in the air.......?¿?
No you still have to spiral down

Do you mean that bright spot on the bottom? Probably the midway lights.

------------------
Opening Day is just 18 days away!!!

I noticed that exact same light last night. I think it's some kind of sign for TTD.

Can't wait to be at the Point!

Besides the great rides and being the best of everything, the best part about Cedar Point is that it isn't Six Flags! YAY!

At least it has been confirmed that they WILL be going over the top this week.
